Title: Device and process for the control of ear ticks
IPC: A61D7/00
Filed: 1975-09-25
Abstract: Device comprising an active substance carrier (Fig. 1) and a holder for this active substance carrier (Fig. 2). The holder is a pin (4) of a thermoplastic material which has a broadened section (6) on one end while the other end terminates in a tip (5) provided with barbs. The active substance carrier is formed by a disc (1) of a sintered thermoplastic in the surface of which there is provided a recess (2) for accommodation of the holder. The recess is connected to the edge of the disc by a slot (3) through which the pin of the holder is inserted in the recess in the active substance carrier. The active substance carrier is transferred to its ready-to-use state by impregnation with a solution of active substance. The device is fixed to the external ears of domestic and agricultural animals, and in this position it serves to combat parasitic ear ticks. <IMAGE>

IPC: B63H19/02
Filed: 1970-06-29
Abstract: 1,260,597. Bitumen coated article. J. CHABERT. 29 June, 1970 [30 June, 1969], No. 31393/70. Heading B2E. [Also in Division C3] An anti-corrosive strip for the protection of metallic members such as tubes, frames comprises a flexible support coated on both its sides with a composition comprising in admixture an oxidised bitumen and a fluid asphaltic oil. Preferably the mixture also includes a powder filler, e.g. silica, kaolin, micas, clays, dolomite or chalk and a fungicide, e.g. a chlorinated derivative of phenol. Suitable supports are fabrics or mats of synthetic fibres such as polyamides, polyimides or plastics materials which are flexible at 20‹C. and whose melting point is above 160‹C., or natural fibres such as cotton or jute fibres, or glass fibres. The anti-corrosive strip may be wound with the interposition of an intermediary which does not adhere to the bituminous coating such as a sheet of siliconed paper; or alternatively the self-adhesion of the strip may be prevented by coating the outer sides with an anti-adhesive composition constituted for example by micro-crystalline mineral waxes or products based on an elastomer optionally mixed with resins. The anti-adhesive composition may be based on low molecular weight poly-isobutylenes optionally mixed with resins. As shown in Figure 1 support 3 is immersed in vat 1 containing the molten bituminous composition maintained at 140‹C. The support passes as it emerges from the vat between two scraper rollers 6, rises vertically whilst being subjected to the action of fans 7, passes over two cooled cylinders 9 and 10 and then wound around spindle 11 at the same time as an anti-adhesive sheet 12.

Abstract: 795,393. Variable resistances. PLESSEY CO., Ltd. Oct. 24, 1956 [Nov. 4, 1955], No. 31615/55. Class 37. In a variable resistance of the kind in which a wiper arm having two contacts which wipe respectively along two tracks arranged concentrically about the spindle on which the arm is mounted, the wiper arm comprises a resilient plate mounted on the spindle and a floating contact brush which is connected with the plate by a bridge member of insulating material. Figs. 1 and 2 show a potentiometer having a resistance track 6 and contact ring 5 concentrically embedded in insulating base 10. A spindle 4 is mounted in bush 11 and a blade 1 of spring steel or other resilient material is secured to rotate jointly with the spindle. A carbon brush 3 having two projecting contacts c is secured to plate 1 by bridge 2 of insulating material so as to pivot about the fulcrum which is tangential to the arm movement about the spindle 4 and distributing the pressure of plate 1 to the two contacts c which respectively engage the resistance track 6 and contact ring 5. The potentiometer is enclosed in a housing 12 which carries an on/off switch 13 automatically operating by member g of plate 1 and a limit stop 12a on the housing co-operates with an abutment f on arm 1. The spring plate 1 has a slot a into which part 2a at one end of bridge member 2 engages while U-shaped cut-out 2b at the other end of member 2 engages grooves b at the sides of carbon brush 3. A tongue g is cut out of an aperture i and bent up to operate on/off switch 13 and the bridge 2 engages member 3 at a point nearer to the contact c which co-operates with the resistance track than to the other contact so that greater pressure is maintained on the track 6 than on contact ring 5. A metal brush, Fig. 4 (not shown), may be used in place of the carbon brush.

Abstract: 656,766. Soldering-irons. HERSEE, L. R. Dec. 13, 1948, No. 32219. [Class 83 (iv)] In a soldering-iron having a solder supply reel, a manually operated mechanism for feeding solder from the reel and a tube or duct arranged internally of the iron and bit for guiding the solder to the working force of the bit, the bit comprises an inverted, channel-shaped member within which the tube or duct is mounted out of direct heat conducting contact therewith, at least until immediately adjacent the working face thereof, to maintain the solder solid until reaching the working face. The bit 11, Fig. 1, comprises sides 14 and a top 15 which is bent at 16 to form a working face 17 while a trap 18 is formed at the lower open side of the bit 11. An extension 13 houses a heating element 12 and a layer 20 of mica &c. is located at least below the element 12 to heat insulate the axially extending feed tube 21, mounted on porcelain &c. rings 22, therefrom. The tube 21 extends almost to the face 17 opposite a hole made therein, so that as solder emerges from the tube 21 it becomes molten and forms a blob on the face 17, excess collecting in the trap 18. The bit 11 and extension 13 may be made of copper. In a modification a semicylindrical bit is provided with a heating- element of similar shape and a feed tube mounted on porcelain &c. rings extends within the bit to a point adjacent a hole formed in the working face, a semi-circular plate secured in one end of the bit. The working face may be rounded or conical. Heating of the bits may be by gas or chemicals. The Provisional Specification describes a solder feed device, the use of an internal bore in the bit and an externally mounted feed tube.

Patent GB-366120-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in or relating to the manufacture of rubber and similar material
IPC: C08J9/28
Filed: 1930-10-29
Abstract: The process of the parent Specification for producing articles of microporous rubber from aqueous dispersions of emulsions which contain no electrolytes that produce gelling in the cold or on the application of heat, is modified by first subjecting the dispersion to the action of an electric current using reactive anodes so that creamy or paste like deposits are formed which still remain reversible and contain a sufficient quantity of reactive ions derived from the anodes, then coagulating or gelling the dispersion by the application of heat and vulcanizing under pressure in known manner. In an example, a micro-porous ebonite is prepared from a mix concentrated by electrodeposition using zinc anodes and a current density of 0,6 amperes per square decimetre.  The cream is removed from the anodes and vulcanized under pressure at 150 DEG  C. Concentrates obtained according to Specifications 219,635 and 290,313, [both in Class 70, Indiarubber &c.], may be used.  The conditions necessary for obtaining the reversible paste or cream as distinct from a coagulated deposit are the presence of a stabilizer such as casein, a low current density and a low conductivity.  The Provisional Specification refers to the production of unconcentrated heat-sensitive products by the passage of electric current.
